For the Love of the Force - Independent Star Wars Convention

After an absence of over 10 years, the original brand that set the Monopoly Events empire on its way is back for a trip of true nostalgia!

For the Love of the Force is independent Star Wars fan convention not affiliated with Disney or Lucasfilm in any way.

It is a celebration of our love of the Star Wars franchise, and brings together Star Wars fans from across the universe while supporting charitable causes in the process. Expect big name guests, costume groups, set and prop recreations, merchandise traders, and of course the world famous Cantina space bar! 

Our ‘For the Love of’ brands are much more genre focussed that our standard conventions with all the attractions targeted for that audience. At our Star Wars show as well as having the chance to meet your heroes, get an item signed or a photo, most guests will also appear live on stage so you’ll get to hear directly about their new projects and previous roles.

Outside of the celebs you can get your picture taken with some of our Star Wars specific props and set builds; ride on our outdoor carousel or browse through the unique gifts in our trader and artist areas with a large show floor for the perfect shopping experience for everyone in this community. Many guests come in cosplay, with some stunning and creative outfits from dozens of classic and current sci-fi movies and franchises.

The shared fandoms and sense of community is central to everything we do. Fans from all over the UK come together every year to share their passion at a festival of galaxy related fun. A place they can find and bond with like-minded individuals who share their interests.
